Movie Trailer




Pre-Production

To begin this project, we were given our groups, and our trailer we would recreate. My group consisted of Annabelle, Greyson, Drew S, John, and I. Our movie trailer we were given to recreate was Clueless. We started by making a storyboard with screenshot of each frame, with the lines the characters said during that frame. After that, we scheduled our filming days. 

Production

We finished our filming with 3 separate days. We did majority of our filming at the school. The only shots we took outside of school were the shots at price chopper for the restaurant scene, and the car shots. We encountered a problem when we took the car scene because the light coming in from the window was really over exposed and we couldn't get the white balance to work to fix it. The other obstacle we had was that we didn't use mics, so for the return scene in particular, the audio isn't as good as it could be. Other than that it went really well. Our actress for Cher was great, and was very accountable for herself.

Post-Production

The editing process was pretty easy. I edited majority of the video in one block day class period. The next day, we just had to touch it up a bit and add music and sound effects. We used the same songs from the trailer, which were difficult to find at first. Additional sound effects we put in were the car tires screeching, the phone ringing, and the voiceover of Cher saying "You try driving in platforms." Greyson, Drew, and John did the credits. After we pulled those in, it was complete.

Overall, I am happy with how it turned out. If I could change anything, I would've had us use mics for better quality. Other than that, I think it looks and sounds great.

Senior Reflection

5 Guarantees  Technical Skills In e-Comm I have learned many technical skills of filmmaking. The program has taught me how to use a camera and other equipment, and how to use editing software. This is extremely beneficial for me, as I am going to study these areas in college. I have a solid understanding of these skills before going to college which will help me a lot. I faced a few struggles along the way, but that is simply part of learning. You can't learn without making mistakes.  Communication In e-Comm I learned how big of a role communications has in life. Being apart of a team requires communication from each person for the maximum outcome. When I was apart of projects with a group that had bad communication, the final product was never as good. It will continue to be one of the most important skills to have throughout the rest of my life. Collaboration In e-Comm I have learned collaboration skills I wouldn't have been able to get anywhere else. I learned about the spe...

10 Words

My 10 Words Project In this project, I wanted to show the 10 words that describe me best. Here are some that mean the most to me. I chose the word dancer because dance is a major part of my life. I do not go a single day without dancing at least a little bit. If I'm not at school, or doing school work, I am most likely dancing. It is a huge part of me and will continue to be.  I chose the word sarcastic because I am being sarcastic 50% of the time I'm speaking. If I am talking to someone I don't know, I try to hold back the sarcasm until i get to now them better. I am a very sarcastic person, and probably will also continue to be.  I chose the word forgiving because I am just a very forgiving person. No matter how bad something you do is, I will still very likely forgive you. I have in the past forgiven people so many times as to where it gets to the point that they will just take advantage of me. Sometimes I'm too forgiving. Lastly, I chose the...

My Logo

Image
My Logo Process Attached are all the art boards from my logo design project. The process of creating my own logo was a long one. I started out by sketching my ideas. I tried many different shapes and styles. Once I decided on my top 3 to bring to life, I went to Adobe Illustrator. I started with black and white, just to see if the shapes would compliment each other, or be appealing. I tried my simplest circle idea, and it went well. When I tried to do the more advanced ones with odd shapes, I didn't have enough Ai experience or knowledge to make one well. I tried to do them implying the rose, and using circles, but I did not like how it looked. Then, when I decided to just stick with the simplest option, it was time to add color. I began with trying analogous colors for contrast between the circle and the letters. I decided I liked the tone and simplicity of the blues. While playing with color, I wondered what it would look like with a stroke. So, I tried the dif...
